Ascents in World as Onsight or Top rope onsight by Alex Mougenot

Fantastic slabbing goodness. Not the easiest to read in places.

Lovely dovely.

Feels good to be back! Have had a dodgy finger (bouldering gym injury) for 3 weeks. First time back on rock in a while, and stoked that offwidths and cracks are still accessible!

This is a great offwidth, btw, requiring proper offwidth techniques and without too many face holds to cheat on. Well protected with big gear, though beware the high big block. Best to use big bros in the top block of the LS crack if you're planning on falling as the sideways force exerted on the block is less with a Big Bro

Beautiful slabbing at the start! Cool thoughtful movement the rest of the way.

Great climbing albeit close to Blood Moon.

Thought provoking with a tricky start.

Line of the crag imo! Didn't see the Thunder Dome though!

For some mileage. Good chossineering practice, but with every route here (this one especially), choose the holds you use! You could pull off 3/4 of the holds on this route if you're not careful and end up on a ledge

These 22s/23s on the left are the best routes here imo. Nice rock, minimal chipping/gluing, great climbing!

Great fun. Tricky slab mantle!

Great and tricky to read in spota

What a journey!!! The slab in particular is a sweet position and beautiful traversing

The sister climb to Hot Sex, and even better due to the lack of a sketchy start! Another beautiful lime that takes you on a pleasant journey yet threatens to spit you off when you least expect it.

Juuuuuugs! I'm not too worried about the flake though it really should be pinned back for peace of mind.

Got suuuuuper pumped at the start but fortunately managed to stick it together to reach the jugs.

Cheers for the rebolt. Really enjoyable climbing that isn't straightforward, though a bit reachy at the end.

Another classic line. Top section climbs like an easier Scimitar. Beautiful Cunningham's Skink living in the crack, so be sure to look where you jam! Also saw a lyrebird and another skink near the base. What a magical place.

Incredible climbing reminiscent of Watchtower Crack. Don't be intimidated by the offwidth.

Was sick watching Kyle's inspiring lead of Verglas.

Found this tricky to read past the 2nd bolt. Fun climbing nonetheless but not without loose rock. Pulled off a jug just before it gets slabbier. Makes the move the the mega jug harder but with an easier sequence.

Nice Man I like carrots.

Simulled this with Dan. Good, fast, fun!

The headwall is dreaaamy!

Each pitch has a distinct spicy section each. Top pitch has some beautiful climbing up thin columns. Super enjoyable! More of this please

Contrived to stay off the other routes, buft fun climbing and good rock.

Don't know about the description but I enjoyed this! 🙂

Great climb! Fun wandery climbing. Bit spicy at the grade, so bring your head game and small wires if you're leading around the 19 mark or lower. Was great to see Kyle flash Androcles in fine style too, in the heat!

Climbing through the roof onsight was tricky, going for random holds blind. Great route!

Another pearler.

Noice.

Linked in with p2 for a fun adventure. The top pitch is good value for the grade! Great day out with Issy and a great bunch of people!

Cool juggy steepness up high with views of the dam!

Noiice. Bit of choss negotiating! A few optional jams up high.

Cool steep section! Felt harder than 21!

Rad little corner start. Cryptic top

Climbed straight up the short starting wall on jug. Going up the corner seam to the L looked fun.

Noice.

All of these are rad additions! Good work Nick!

V2 imo, but really really good!

Another great one1 Try not to fall at the crux though ... this was a bloody fight in a dress and with a gear sling! Got pumped silly but got it. Claiming the onsight, though for full disclosure I did boulder up 3 metres, placing no gear (there is none haha), jumped back down to the ground, then sent it. Onsight or not? What do you think? gets popcorn

Fantastic line! Cheers for the tour Matt & Henri!

Fantastic the whole way. Great to climb some new pitches here! So much to do.

DAMN those are some thin finger locks! I don't know what I was expecting, but I didn't expects a tips crack here haha. Fantastic, albeit short.

Halfway up got a bit stuck, but then unstuck myself by sticking the move.

The crux reach to the finishing shrub-jug (shrug?) had me stumped for a bit.

Cool slab moves down low

Bloody brilliant!

Very nice slabbing in the style of an old school adventure. For some reason the runouts took us by surprise when we should have taken note of the date of the FA and been expecting them haha! Loved it. Sorta did a pitch of Japhlion instead of the 3rd pitch then got back on track afterwards

Also - Got lost on the approach and rapped off some random bolts, got our rope stuck, then had to climb some random crack + runout slab on a single half rope to get back to the anchor! Will log it as a new route at some point and see if it has been done before. Wasn't half bad.

One of the best pitches I've done. Hands down.

So good! Rock is slightly fragile but there are so many bolts there's no reason to be scared,! Beautiful delicate slabbing.

So good! Doesn't deserve the R rating imo. With double ropes this route protects quite well, really. Em loved the delicate slabs, too!

Sweet! The route's over pretty quick, although the moves are sweet!

Very cool climbing the whole way! Still not used to the subtle granite feed so was a little stressful navigating the roof! Don't need the bolt anymore with big gear. Traverse was cool as well, following the weakness. The final pitch to the summit was also classsssyyyyy as!

Imo this is the way to go! Cool splitter crack climbing which links directly into the second pitch and reduces rope drag if linking the first two pitches.

What an adventure classic!!!! Cruisy yet engaging the whole way samples of hands, fists, offwidths and chimneyjng along the way, with a technical crux to make things interesting! Enjoyed every moment of the line! Highly recommend this to anyone who likes crack climbing, and my only advice is that stacking hands in the wide sections takes away alot of the thrutch!
